CONCLUSION

All that we have, we enjoy because


of God’s grace and goodness. He has
put into our hands the administration
of all that He owns. As your pre-
eminent Master, He holds you
accountable for how well you
manage what He has entrusted to
your care. – Bill Bright

whole of your life is God’s! Your time, influence,
material possessions, abilities, everything, even
your successes are His. He has graciously placed
